So many right answers, so many wrong too

That's the beauty of music.... there is no such thing as a wrong answer. It's just a different one.

 

And yeah, I enjoy Hendrix, but I find The Wind Cries Mary the better song from him.

I like that song better too, but for best rock song I had to pick something that talked about sex.

Yup it was.

heres a cool vid from David Bowie talking about the pixies and their impact. Talks about how the pixies were one of those bands that when you heard them, you wanted to form a band yourself.... 

 

yeah it's been kind of lost to history because it's such a common trope by now but that band did really pioneer the really quiet subdued verse/loud chorus dynamic.

i like how he puts the pixies and sonic youth on kind of the same platform very early in the interview though.  it seems like people gravitate toward one of them in some form or another if they look into nirvana's influences or get interested in 80s indie.  i definitely like the pixies but the first time i heard daydream nation it blew my mind and i probably listened to it daily for three months.  and there are as many people who feel like i do as there are people who would listen to that album and/or that band in general and think that it sucks.  it's crazy.

For the record, the guys that made Teen Spirit didn't even think it was that great. They felt that it was the 5th or 6th best song just on that one album and that it came across as a ripoff of the Pixies.

It was a rip off of the Pixies.  Their whole sound was a ripoff of the Pixies.  But they did it better than the Pixies IMO, and I have all of their stuff too.  

And btw fug you lazy, ADD bastards for just posting video's with no discussion as to why that song should be considered the best rock song of all time.  And for the record I love most of the stuff posted in this thread so far but I'm looking for your thoughts behind the music.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
